off-topic/trolling split from t=20963

Post by x214782 »

seems odd considering firefox is about the least used browser these days with the exception of like opera (less than 10 people out of every 100 according to the latest market share figures.)

firefox used to be blinding fast. now it's a bloated, sluggish mess. oh well. these days you can just run your browser in sandboxes/virtual machines, so extensions like noscript are pretty obsolete if you are seriously concerned about security.

How about putting that "less than 10 people out of every 100" statistic in context? - http://www.netmarketshare.com/browser-m ... px?qprid=1

Utter drivel.

Splitting as off-topic and locking. Go troll somewhere else.
*Always* check the changelogs BEFORE updating that important software!
